Sustainable Development Goals

What do they mean?

Gender Equality

Gender Equality

Goals

Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.

Gender bias is undermining our social fabric and devalues all of us. It is not just a human rights issue; it is a tremendous waste of the world’s human potential.

By denying women equal rights, we deny half the population a chance to live life at its fullest. Political, economic and social equality for women will benefit all the world’s citizens.

Together we can eradicate prejudice and work for equal rights and respect for all.
